How do I determine which KD model is best suited to my needs?
If you’re going to use the vacuum on steeper inclines or rough terrain, we recommend the self-propelled version. The KD push model is very easy to maneuver and an excellent choice for most homeowners.

How long is the hose on the On-Board-Hose Kit?
The hose is 7 feet long but the effective reach is over 8 feet. Most KD vacuums are sold with hose kits because they work so well.

Can I increase the length of hose?
Yes, couplers and additional hose lengths are available but extending the length will reduce suction by as much as 25%. Also, extending the hose will make it more difficult to carry the hose on-board.

How much does the KD vacuum shred leaves?
That varies depending on several factors such as leaf size, moisture content in the leaves, and leaf thickness. Dry ash leaves turn to dust but wet, leathery magnolia leaves may only reduce in a 2:1 ratio. As a general rule, you can expect a 3:1 reduction.

Will the KD pick up bottles?
Yes it will—bottles up to 12 ounces and cans, too, with no damage to your vacuum.
